## Chapter

### Summary
Based solely on the provided source material, the current chapter's reader comments overwhelmingly focus on the heroic intervention of the maid, Janna, who dramatically emerged to protect the protagonist (Rita inhabiting Bertha Alberhart's body) from a compromising situation involving her fiancé Jean Lawrence, his friend Baron Jacard, and their butler. Readers express intense admiration for Janna, labeling her "cool," "heroic," and "best girl," with many comments explicitly shipping her romantically with the protagonist and advocating for a yuri/GL route due to profound disgust towards all introduced male characters (Jean, Jacard, the butler), who are universally condemned as "trash," "scumbags," and "psycho rapists." This revulsion stems from the previous chapter's revelation of Jean's voyeuristic/cuckold fetish and the implication of ongoing abuse suffered by the original Bertha (Verta), eliciting continued sympathy for her plight. The comments reveal significant reader hope that any future Male Lead (ML) is not among the current male cast and strong support for Janna potentially fulfilling that role.
